Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You lie awake, needlessly fingering this patchwork guilt. Remorse, a code you live by; distress calls for someone to blame. —from “Threads” Following the deaths of her Mennonite grandparents, Angeline Schellenberg began exploring their influence on her life. Her elegiac love letter to them articulates her grief against the backdrop of their involuntary emigration. She artfully captures the immigrant identity, vital to Canadian culture, in poems that draw on events both personal and global: war and famine, dementia and cancer, hidden sacrifice and secrets. Her poems captivate with themes of ancestry, memory, resilience, and forgiveness. Fields of Light and Stone is a reflection on how family history shapes and moves us.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the wake of the catastrophic invasion that has leveled the Stoneholding, the last bastion of order in the world of Ahn Norvys, Kalaquinn Wright Pursues the mission entrusted to him. Freshly invested as High Bard, he sets forth across lands that lie under a dark cloud of uncertainty and strife, charged with the task of finding the lost Prince Starigan. This is but the first step in rekindling the Sacred Fire and restoring peace to a broken world. The task, however, will not be an easy one, for the Talamadh, the golden harp that binds together heaven and earth in sacred harmony, remains in the clutches of the tyrant Ferabek. After securing safe haven for the remnant folk of his clanholding, Kal and his companions venture into the lowlands of Arvon, a place of looming danger. Despite the adversities of a world sinking into the world sinking into the twilight of darkness and chaos, the young Holdsman keeps faith and its sustained by the loyalty of friends, the resources he begins to discover in himself, and unwavering hope. In his quest for the lost prince, moreover, Kal learns that royalty is to be found in unexpected quarters. By fate's caprice, Kal falls prey to his enemies. In the trial that befalls him, his mettle is tested, and he draws upon an inner strength that he has never known before. He also discovers that the Talamadh, with which Ardiel, once High King of Arvon, inaugurated the Great Harmony, though weak and faltering, still retains a vestige of its ancient potency. But will it be enough to stem the tide of chaos that floods over the Darkling Fields of Arvon? At the publisher's request, this title is sold without DRM (Digital Rights Management).

Download or read book I Wanna Go Again written by Joe Best and published by Ascendere Publishing. This book was released on 2005 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'I Wanna Go Again!' is the single, heartfelt sentence that all travellers whisper to themselves as they stumble, stunned and suffering that awful sense of anti-climax, back through Arrivals at airports, train stations and ports, all over the world, as they return wearily home. Every reader and every traveller will relate to Joe Best's humorous story, told in his own unique, down-to-earth, blokey style. The book is hot, fresh, young and funky and based on the diaries of Joe's maiden voyage. Before leaving the security of Berkshire at the age of 24 he had worked for an accounting firm and been bored senseless by the meaningless of his life. He needed to escape his reality and create a new one. But when he and a group of young friends set off travelling the world on a 12 month adventure, full of trepidation, naïve and innocent, armed only with Joe's sensible sterilisation cup (given to him by his sensible Mum), he has no idea if they will all make it back safely. (Although, to be fair, he has read a variety of books about daring SAS exploits, and he is hoping for the best). Through their wild journey, Joe and the boys develop a strong and lasting camaraderie; they have no real options, but if they set out as friends they return as life long soul mates, having shared some very odd, cathartic experiences. Joe eventually settled down to write his lush travel memoir almost 10 years after making it back to Taplow and his Mum. He explains, "Travelling does not need to be daunting. It changes everything, and gives you the confidence to get on with the rest of your life. The memories last fresh for ever."

Download or read book Wrong s what I Do Best written by Barbara Ching and published by Oxford University Press on Demand. This book was released on 2001 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first study of "hard" country music as well as the first comprehensive application of contemporary cultural theory to country music. Barbara Ching begins by defining the features that make certain country songs and artists "hard." She compares hard country music to "high" American culture, arguing that hard country deliberately focuses on its low position in the American cultural hierarchy, comically singing of failures to live up to American standards of affluence, while mainstream country music focuses on nostalgia, romance, and patriotism of regular folk. With chapters on Hank Williams Sr. and Jr., Merle Haggard, George Jones, David Allan Coe, Buck Owens, Dwight Yoakam, and the Outlaw Movement, this book is written in a jargon-free, engaging style that will interest both academic as well as general readers.
